Three Men and a Baby (1987)
This is Episode 70 of Cinemavino. Today, we return to an old format: The boys and I screen Three Men and a Baby, an 80s staple that doesn’t age too well. It’s cornball, politically incorrect, and–as a brand new father–factually inaccurate. But,

Star Trek: Picard (*Todd Solo*)
This episode only features me. I broke away from baby-raising long enough to watch the first episode of Star Trek: Picard. The first half of this mini-sode will be spoiler-free, and I’ll give you a heads-up when it changes.

For this week’s Cinemavino, I return from paternity leave! The past four weeks have been amazing, exhausting, wonderful, and anxiety-laden. And I’d do it all again. We’re so glad to have baby Noah in our lives.

2020 Movie Preview
We’ve scanned the movie schedule for 2020, and it truly looks like the best of times and the blurst of times. Lots of sequels, prequels, remakes, rehashes, reboots, and screwups. Still, look carefully and you’ll find some good with the bad and ugly.

The Mandalorian (Episode 4)
New Cinemavino is live! This week, The Mandalorian delivered what many are calling a “filler episode.” As the midpoint episode, it really didn’t do a whole lot to move the plot forward. Hopefully the series will regain a little momentum with next we...

The Mandalorian (Episodes 2 & 3)
As a Space Western, The Mandalorian gets stronger as it goes along. The action scenes are killer, and it has attitude and atmosphere to spare. This feels like the breath of fresh air Star Wars has needed for a good long while. -
